Dolls and furniture pictured NOT included
They are open ended toys which provide children with the perfect opportunity to explore their imaginative skills. Imaginative play is when children enact an event or experience in their life that they have come across or found interesting. It allows them to create stories and explore new ideas as they connect with the world around them. Similarly open-ended play is also a kind of play that encourages children to freely express their creative thoughts and ideas. They express themselves using their words which promotes language development.

During their pretend play experiences, children come across challenges which they learn to overcome thus developing their problem-solving skills. Another important benefit of pretend play is, it helps develop your toddlers emotional needs as they learn to express and understand their feelings. This playhouse is also great for storytelling purposes. Thus, this two-story cottage house set provides children with endless opportunities through which they can develop their emotional, imaginative, language and creative skills.

Handcrafted individually, each of the QToys product has its unique look and sometimes they are not exactly identical. This also contribute to the beauty and special feature of each toy.

Natural Markings
These product is made of solid wood, minimally processed to retain as much of their natural texture and properties as possible. Unlike plastic, wood is an uneven natural material that frequently shows growth rings or knots, colour stains or rough areas. These ARE NOT DEFECTS and DO NOT CONSTITUTE REASON TO REPLACE THE PRODUCT - they are distinctive signs that guarantee the natural origin of the product and give uniqueness to each toy, telling the story of the tree from which it was made.
 
The unique variations are proof of quality, not defects. Discover the markings that make your toy Simply Unique!

Every piece of wood has its own appearance, its own character and its own vitality. Its natural characteristics, and unique markings are therefore always to be considered. For example, dark spots on the rainbow are by mineral deposits. This means that if the tree had grown further, a branch would have developed at this point.



Black stripes are also something completely natural. This is the so-called pith tube or "heart of the tree". It differs from the surrounding wood by the darker colour and structure. When working on the wood, it can become completely or partially visible. This feature is part of the natural appearance of the wood. Therefore, these are not defects for us, but quality features of a natural product and as such are desired and welcome by us. We love this uniqueness of wood!
Cleaning

If you want to remove dirt from our products, simply wipe gently with a damp cloth and a little soapy water (if necessary). When drying, please do not place on the heater, otherwise, cracks may occur in the wood. Please allow to dry at room temperature. Please never clean our toys with disinfectant, hot water or similar!
